About Me

Hey, I'm Yasser. I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Ottawa interested in backend systems, networking, infrastructure, computer vision, and embedded systems.

I enjoy building software that connects different areas of computing, from web applications and databases to Linux, infrastructure, hardware, and computer vision.

I'm especially interested in projects that solve practical problems and let me learn how systems work beyond just the user interface.
